I can't get into Tamyura like I can with other iyashikei. What's wrong with me and how do I fix it? Is it because my favorite healing show is Sketchbook and the main character has a camera? Is a camera no good?

Nothing will ever topple Aria when it comes to iyashikei or SoL. Nonetheless, both are great but what sets Aria apart from other SoLs is the fact that it presents the coming of age theme nonchalantly and with closure, at that.

Funny, it's the same for me as well but with Hidamari Sketch.

I haven't really read Aria, I just know about it. What do these Prima Undines do when they're older? Are there old ladies or even men who give those boat tours, because it seems like something pretty young women do.
It just seems like a dead-end job to me.

They probably move on to management part of the undine business. Although a select few manage to get to work for the Gondola Association.

Grandma(Akino) did it until she was was pretty well on. I think it's more the norm to move on like Alicia and Athena did, moving into other fields or becoming housewives but there's clearly a precedent for sticking to it.

>>101192812>And perhaps you can ask the artist?
I can't be bothered, to be honest. Hell, I can't even draw properly yet, let alone shading and skin tones. Time will come.

>You'll have to eventually!
I know, I know. I'm still slowly reading through Yotsuba whenever I feel rather sad; and I just finished the second volume. Although I am looking forward to getting copies of Aria so I can read them in the future, so there's that.

There are a few birthday images, but that's not it; it's the previous image. I still need to get the hang of glows, highlights and shades.

There's a VN? Missed those. They are on PS2, right? You could learn basic Japanese and work from there with a dictionary, slowly getting faster and faster with your searches and reading. I wish I could help you there, but I'm rather busy with everything else.

>>101193394>I just assumed you drew because people don't usually care about what program was used.
I'm rather curious as to what the limits of some programs would be. I can never get the hang of photoshop, and I'm often surprised as to how great the results look like with SAI.
